Great Alternatives to Alcohol-Based Activities and Social Gatherings

Whether you’re detoxing from alcohol, getting past an addiction or dependence, or sick of feeling pressured to drink socially doesn’t mean you need to give up your social life.

In fact, there are some incredible ways to have fun without any alcohol involved, including:

Roughing it up outdoors together

Nothing feels as good as being in the great outdoors. Whether you’re camping, hiking, trekking, or just spending time chilling outside, nature’s high is enough to get you through. It’s an incredible opportunity to connect and unwind with your friends and connect with nature simultaneously.

Meditating or working out with friends

Another great alternative is to work out or meditate with your friends and loved ones. The rush of endorphins and the mental and physical health benefits are enough of a motivator, but it’s even more fun to do it with people you love. Working out together not only pushes you to stay committed, but it also adds another layer of excitement.  

Head over to a local show or exhibit

Get your daily dose of culture in by heading over to local exhibits, museums, and entertainment shows. Catch a musical performance or a comedy set, support artists and creators, or join a book club or writing club. These are excellent options for when you want to let your creative juices flow and connect with others who share those interests and hobbies.

Have a fun, alcohol-free party of your own

You can still party without alcohol. Host game night, or throw a small garden party and make activities, food, and non-alcohol beverages such as mocktails, sodas, juices, and smoothies the center of it. An alcohol-free gathering is a great way to connect with people around you without the pressure to drink or the complications that come with messy drinkers.

It’s entirely possible to have fun without any drinking or drugs involved; you just have to know how to do it. You can also have plenty of fun on your own or with one or two people from your support system instead of socializing with dozens of others.
